Financial Literacy
The BSP partners with financial literacy training providers to help janitors and other low-wage workers make strides towards self-sufficiency through smart investing. Future plans include helping workers increase their assets by investing in Individual Development Accounts, applying for Earned Income Tax Credit, researching affordable housing and homebuyer education programs, and attending Consumer Education programs.
“I had a lot of difficulty making my mortgage payments after having arm surgery and going on disability. The BSP helped refer me to resources in Oakland to help me refinance my loan and get advice on my finances. Thanks to the BSP's help, I was able to keep my home.”
